.SH NAME
xpdtest \- xproofd test utility
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B xpdtest
.I "[options]"
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
This manual page documents the
.BR xpdtest
program, an utility whose purpose is to test the status of an xproofd daemon running on the local machine.
The target is to run
.B xpdtest
inside a monitor infrastructure, for example
.B monit
(see
.UR http://mmonit.com/monit/
\fIhttp://mmonit.com/monit/\fP
), capable to take some decisions and to do some actions following the result of
.B xpdtest.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.B \-\-help, \-h
Gives a short list of options available, and exit
.TP
.B \-t\fP \fR<test>\fP
type of test to be run:
0 ping the daemon (includes process existence check if pid specified; see below)
1 ping the daemon and check connection for default user
2 ping the daemon and check connection for the default user and all recent users
The default user is the one specified in the URL (e.g. 'user' for user@localhost); if no explicit specification is found in the URL, the user under which
.B xpdtest
is run is used; it can be also passed via the environment variable
.B XPDTEST_TEST.
.TP
.B \-u\fP \fR<url>\fP
URL where the xproofd under test responds; it can be also passed via the environment variable
.B XPDTEST_URL
(default is 'localhost:1093').
.TP
.B \-d\fP \fR<sbdir>\fP
sandbox directory used to find out the users of the facility when test is 2; it can be also passed via the environment variable
.B XPDTEST_SBOXDIR
(default is '/tmp/proofbox').
.TP
.B \-s\fP \fR<span>\fP
define the time interval, in minutes, to define 'recent' users when test is 2: only users who connected within this interval are checked; use -1 for infinite;
it can be also passed via the environment variable
.B XPDTEST_TIMESPAN
(default is -1).
.TP
.B \-T\fP \fR<timeout>\fP
define the time, in seconds, waited for the session to start successfully;
it can be also passed via the environment variable
.B XPDTEST_TIMESOUT
(default is 10 seconds).
.TP
.B \-l\fP \fR<logfile>\fP
log file if not screen; deleted if the required test fails unless '-k' is specified (see below);it can be also passed via the environment variable
.B XPDTEST_LOGFILE.
.TP
.B \-p\fP \fR<pidfile>\fP
file with the process ID as a integer number in the first line; if this file is given a quick test on the process existence is done using kill(\fRpid\fP,0);
it can be also passed via the environment variable
.B XPDTEST_PIDFILE.
.TP
.B \-k
keep log file at path given via '-l' in all cases; it can be also passed via the environment variable
.B XPDTEST_KEEP
(default is 'no keep').
.TP
.B \-v
set
.B
gDebug=1
for the underline ROOT calls; it can be also passed via the environment variable
.B XPDTEST_VERBOSE
(default is 'no verbose').
.SH RETURN
.B xpdtest
returns 0 on success and 1 in case of test failure. Errors are printed on the screen or saved into the specified log file.
.SH FILES
The file
.B xpdtest_popen_file
in the temporary directory (typically /tmp) is used to parse the output of
.B TProof::Open().
The file is overwritten by each new attempt; after a run of
.B xpdtest
it contains the result of the last session open attempt.
.SH NOTES
The connection attempt is done in
.B 'masteronly'
mode. For daemons running in
.B 'worker'
mode the attempt will fail with a well defined error message ('Server not allowed to be top master');
since this indicates that the daemon is anyhow responsive, a positive detection of such a pattern in the error message
is interpreted as the attempt having being successful.
